Is the Unicode license is compatible with PostgreSQL. Do you mean that you'd like to add ICU support? I think that would be extremely interesting, FWIW. The stability of ICU collations would be quite helpful from a number of different perspective. One of which is that having a contract about the stability of strxfrm()-style binary keys would allow me to make text abbreviated keys exploited in the internal pages of B-Tree indexes, to greatly reduce cache misses with index scans on text attributes. This general technique already been very effective with sorting [1], but it feels likely that we'll need ICU to make the abbreviation technique useful for indexes.

[GENERAL] create table if not exists xx AS select ...
Hi All, I am not entirely sure if this is a bug (fails on 9.3 and 9.4) or working as intended: create table if not exists test ( foo boolean ); create table if not exists test2 as select * from test where 1=0; /* ERROR: syntax error at or near as LINE 1: create table if not exists test2 as */ create table test2 as select * from test where 1=0; Thanks Daniel

Thanks Michael, I suppose I should have checked the docs for CREATE TABLE AS and not just CREATE TABLE :) Regards, Daniel On Mon, Mar 23, 2015 at 11:41 AM, Michael Paquier michael.paqu...@gmail.com wrote: On Mon, Mar 23, 2015 at 10:28 AM, Daniel Caldeweyher daniel.caldewey...@pricefinder.com.au wrote: I am not entirely sure if this is a bug (fails on 9.3 and 9.4) or working as intended: [...] create table test2 as select * from test where 1=0; This works as intended, CREATE TABLE AS does not support IF NOT EXISTS in 9.4 and 9.3: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-createtableas.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/sql-createtableas.html But it does in 9.5 and onwards: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/sql-createtableas.html Regards, -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
[GENERAL] pgadmin 3 on windows 7 install
Hello everyone, a new Postgresql user here. I installed the msi for pgadmin 3 on windows 7 and installed C++ redistributable from VS 2013 and 2005 too. Pgadmin exe crashes, can not find dll, msvcp120. It's all there in windows system 32 folder. So I copied to pgadmin folder, now it crashes with access violation. Help please.
